That’s absolutely incorrect


Boomers are in their 60’s and 70’s now.

I am 49, and definitely a Gen X.

I have two kids who are early 20’s... smack in the middle of the Millenials.

How am I absolutely incorrect? Isn’t that how generations work? One leads to the next.

Boomers begat Gen X begat Millennials.

We've gone down this road. The millennials are in their mid to late 20's and early 30's right now. The majority of Gen X's kids are 10-20 years old right now.

You're so brilliant!

Independence leads to being self reliant.

Absolutely.

Quickest way to raise hairs on the neck of a collectivist is to use those terms.

Early 20's would be considered Gen Z.


Boomers produced Millennials.
Gen X is producing Gen Z.

Collectivism =\= communism

But millennials don't understand economics or social structures very well.

A lot of this is cell phone plan and I see why.

Most major carriers had awesome unlimited family plans that were super cheap compared to today. They got rid of those but grandfathered in people already on them.

It’s actually cheaper for some parents of millennials to keep them on their plan than have them get a new one, because I think you have to have 4 phones on the plan to qualify for most of them.

I know I had to actively work to allow AT&T to send me my phone bill. In fact I believe my phone may still be in my moms name even though I pay for it, because pulling me off could hurt the family plan rate she gets. Basically I got added as an “owner” and had my phone billed directly to me.

If I had never sought that out it never would have happened. I guess most aren’t stupid like me and actively seek to pay their own shite

Holy shite man this isn't some big simulation conspiracy. Most people are just stupid and tribal as a way to reenforce their own views.

Yes boomers are 60-70+

Yes you at 49 are gen x

Nearly every word after that is incorrect.

Boomers raised gen x and most millennials. Gen x raised a minority of millennials, primarily the younger end, which does not include your kids unless they are 23-24 or older.
